I know we have a similiar topic for piggies so I'm making one for this! I'm looking to buy at least one next month and I need people's opinions!

i only own one and it's calle Hush.. its sort of a neutral colour, quite glossy, good for when i want to look like i have concealorated my lips (in a good way)

dunno if it was limited edition or what though since it says sample on it and my sister gave it to me with some other stuff

It's not on the site so I guess it was only limited. GRRR I hate not living super close to mac.

I don't have it, but I love the look of Lady Danger! Ow! It's bright red orange, it totally rules.

You can wait until Heatherette comes out and get Hollywood Nights? That looks pretty badass.

Melrose Mood.
I really want Vagas Volt, Lady Bug, Lady Danger, Russian Red, Full Fuchsia, Girl About Town...
Soo many more.

Sorry, I probably should have mentioned that I'm not a Red Lip person Razz

I'm looking for sorta lightish colours, maybe a little dark, but nothing really deep.

Sally, Girl about Town and Snob were one's I hadn't considered before, but I'll check them out! Myth, Pervette and Hug me are on my list. What are they like?

2N!! it's my go-to lipstick for when I do super bright outrageous eyes and don't want to look like a clown.

Viva Glam IV is really pretty as well. It's a very nice toned down pink. One swipe of the lipstick will give you a nice color but it's also very buildable if you're feeling a bit bolder.

Melrose mood is absolutely gorgeous but if you want something that isn't LE, try Pink Plaid. I'm wearing it in the FOTD I posted about the Heatherette look I had done on me.

&&&& even though you said not really into bright colours

Hollywood nights from the Heatherette collection is such an awesome colour
like
usually, pinks only look good on blondes
dont know why
but this one doesnt even clash with my hair
[& its like a coppery readish thing]
so yeah
i'd say Hug Me & hollywood nights

Thanks Veronica. I'm not so much opposed to bright pinks and stuff, it's just the darker reds and browns I shy away from. I really want a pink such as long stem rose, but brighter is good too Razz

Jess...

Myth is real beige-y neutral, and isn't to everyones taste. It really kinda blanks out your natural lip colour, that said it does look nice with gloss over... if proper neutrals are your thing.

Pervette is a blue/violet based light pink which I think looks pretty good on everyone, and it a glaze so not too heavy.

Hug Me is a nice neutral, and little more easy to wear and not so heavy looking as Myth. It a nice everyday colour without being too boring!

Girl About Town is a real true bright fushia, so maybe too bright for what your looking for? Can be toned down by applying lightly though.

Snob is a really creamy looking pale pink, quite heavy in colour. It can look a little stark on pale skin tones, it's quite an intense colour. Again I'd suggest a little bit of gloss over it maybe for you.
